This is a stable release to coincide with the release of Gnome 2.10.0.

||
translation updates.

|
||
|
||
This is an unstable release heading towards Gnome 2.10. Since there

have been an awful lot of fixes since Gnome 2.10 Beta 2, we are hoping

|
||
Marcus Clarke for fixes in this release.

||
- Ignore all focus and focus-stealing-prevention code in
|
||
meta_window_show when not showing the window for the first time
|
||
(Elijah) [#167199]

This release features a number of bug fixes, and also the disabling of

the focus-stealing-prevention code (we're entering hard code freeze in

|
||
conventions. (Elijah; part of #149028)
|
||
* add render extension check to the display, don't build the
|
||
compositing manager by default, use an ARGB visual when available
|
||
for the window frame (Rich Wareham; various tweaks added later by
|
||
Havoc)
|
||
* move the have_xrender variable initialization up in the file since
|
||
it can be set as part of composite check (Havoc)
|
||
* make argb stuff compile, add some code from xcompmgr (Havoc)
|

* fix an assertion failure that would occur after increasing the
|
||
number of workspaces; fix stacking order when a window is denied
|
||
focus (Elijah; #150615)

server during repaint, various set_background fixes and

refactoring (Havoc)

||
===
|
||
|
||
- we were making all dialogs skip the taskbar, even non-transient

ones, though this was supposedly fixed a while ago. Now really
|
||
fixed.
|
||
- change back to Alt+click by default for the window drag feature.

||
- assign Alt+F12 to shade window
|
||
- fix not deleting enough workspaces when the number

was reduced via the pager config dialog (readams@hmc.edu)
|
||
- don't allow windows under the top panel ever, even if they
|
||
are tall windows (Arvind)
|
||
- fix up the window layout for directional workspace nav,
|
||
so you always stop at the edges and always end up

where you expect (hp, with tweaks from readams@hmc.edu)
|
||
- focus new windows in mouse focus mode (readams@hmc.edu)
|

|
||
to the window manager frame (yeah it resizes slow, deal)

||
- handle crossing events resizing for more opaque resize goodness
|
||
(Soeren)
|
||
- add wacky _METACITY_UPDATE_COUNTER experimental extension
|
||
to do nice opaque resizing (does nothing without a GTK patch)
|
||
- fix a crash setting workspace names
|
||
- fix internationalized WM_NAME reading
